Export MySQL Data to Excel with a Click

somdn_product_page

This n8n workflow automates the process of exporting data from a MySQL database into an Excel file, triggered manually with a button click. It begins with a manual trigger, allowing the user to initiate the process at will. A Set node assigns the target table name, making it easy to specify which data to export. The workflow then loads all records from the specified table via a MySQL node, connecting securely with stored credentials. The retrieved data is subsequently saved as an XLSX Excel file using the Spreadsheet File node, with file naming based on the table name. Additionally, a sticky note provides a clear reminder and instructions for users, indicating the purpose of the workflow and possible next steps, such as emailing or uploading the file. This workflow is particularly useful for database administrators or developers who need to periodically generate reports or backups of specific database tables without manual scripting, streamlining data management and reporting tasks.
